The Christmas Light Count is looking a bit different this year compared to last year - so far I’ve counted 41 properties with Christmas decorations on my usual local routes - this time last year I had 8!! That’s 5 times more!! It’ll be interesting to see whether we get more christmas lights overall, an earlier plateau, or something entirely different…

Right, halloween's basically over so I feel justified in talking about christmas.

So, for several years I've been holding a ‘christmas light count', where I attempt to count the properties that I see displaying christmas decorations that year. This is of course quite difficult to keep track of (ignoring the problem of trying to remember which lights I've already seen) because I'm not very good at remembering the number I'm on. The solution? A spreadsheet of course! This also allows me to look at the rate of appearance of christmas lights throughout november and december. This year's count will start tomorrow.

I was going to put the graph for last year here, but I can't export it large enough on my phone… it might happen tomorrow!

I'll try and give an update at the end of december :)

be very careful when explaining what you find attractive in people. just in case @boobies thinks you're in love with her (unless you are)

I love it when people can be nice to each other and just get along despite their differences.

I realised that I forgot to continue with my holiday photos! Oh well, I guess they'll stay secret forever.

i'm currently on holiday in cornwall and thought i might try to send a picture or two each day because why not. this is day 2 but I'll number these in terms of when I post them, not when I take them.

Day 1: cat & horse
